• @Dammit - you mention LSD, and then further down you explain what it is: Limited Slip Differential (LSD)

    i like the first photo a lot

    @NurseHolliday took that picture when he borrowed the car, I also like it a lot.

    One of the people who came to look at the car last year got in contact, offered me the old asking price, I've asked if we can meet in the middle (he offered 8, I want 10, asked to meet on 9) as I've spent close to 4k on it since he saw it (fuck!)

  • Tbh arguing about £1k on a car like this is the wrong way of looking at it. If a buyer wants an 850R yours is the one to get as it has everything replaced and is well looked after. If they get something kept even half as good for 8 or even 6, they'll be up at 10 soon enough on maintenance.

    Next car I'm getting should be a well kept peach, and it can cost as much as it likes. I cheapened out this time with the Saab. Sure it's low milage, but I've spent heaps on it since and there's more bills to come. Buy cheap, buy twice.

  • Own a car, pay lots to fix things

    Ftfy

    Cheap or not to begin with doesn't matter ime.

  • This is exactly what I'm considering now... Apart from the "good" cars issue my project 505 GTi has hit a roadblock. The mint condition barn find wants $7000 and there's another similar car that needs a little work but is 80% there and it's $700! It's a gamble either way really.
